"Smile!" smiled Momo, taking pictures of the newlyweds. Even though Rangiku and herself tried to convince her to rethink it, she went along with it, so they stood alongside her with her decision.

That's what best friends do, right?

Rukia turned around, her wedding dress giving her an appearance of an angel. She lightly tugged on Kaien's shoulder and he turned, rolling his eyes slightly. "Make this a good one!" Rukia's smile was undeniably full of joy…she was happy.

"I'm still against this," Rangiku whispered, standing next to Momo "But I'll bear with it, for her."

"Take the picture slowpoke!" Rukia giggled, her hand intertwined in his.

-x-

"I told her you were here," Renji whispered, noticing how Ichigo's hand covered his face "Sorry."

Ichigo sat up on the hospital bed, whipping his eyes "Is she happy?"

Renji could tell he was hurt, and part of it, he blamed himself. What if he told her perfect husband is a fake and Ichigo was really the one always there?

"Is she happy?" he repeated again, his hands in a fist as he placed them beside him. Renji sighed and dug in his pocket, giving him a picture that was taken on their wedding, four days ago. It was her smiling up at Kaien in her white dress, while Kaien simply stood there, looking down with a smirk on his face.

"Does that answer your question?" Renji patted his back lightly, he was taking this hard.

Did he really lose her?

Rukia laid in bed, turned to him slightly and holding his hand tightly.

"Do you have to go?"She whined, twisting her body more so she was facing him.

He wrote a quick yes with his finger and she pouted, pulling his hand closer to her chest.

"Can you stay here," she looked up, her bandages covering her eyes "With me?"

He sighed, letting go of her hand. Rukia pouted more, grabbing the covers and pulling it over her head. She jumped slightly when she felt some arms wrap themselves around her waist.

"Thank you," she turned around so that she was facing her lover "I love you."

Ichigo sighed again, only if she was saying those words to him. "Me too." He wrote it on her forehead, and she blushed, scooting closer to him.

"Do you want to touch me?" her question wasn't expected, and he blushed ever-so-slightly.

"Do you want me to?" he wrote on her shoulder now, the strap of the hospital gown sliding off.

She stayed quiet for a second, and cupped his face. She sat up, the covers still covering both of them. She slowly slid the straps of her shoulders down, a light tint of pink painted on her cheeks.

"Yes." And she bended over top of him and lean in more so that her face was right in front of his. "Cause I love you." And she slowly kissed his neck, legs on either side of his body.

"Ichigo?" he recognize that voice anywhere, it was her.

"Rukia?" he quickly got up from the bed, Renji smiling from his seat in the corner. "What are you doing here?"

"Well, I heard you were in the hospital so I had to come visit you." She smiled, walking closer to him and hugging him tightly "Are you alright."

"I'm getting better," he smiled down at her; she was his world but was he allowed doing so?

"I thought you were going on honeymoon with him?" Renji intervened, getting up from his seat and walking towards the door.

"He said he was busy," Rukia looked down at that "but it's alright, he spend so much time taking care of me he needs a break." She didn't notice how those words she said hurt Ichigo, was she really that blind.

"Well, I'm going to take my leave now;" he smiled back at Ichigo "Ya need the time alone..." and he left, leaving them in the room alone.

"I've missed you," she suddenly spoke, her arms still around Ichigo's waist "I've missed you so much…" Ichigo looked down at the woman on him. "Why didn't you come?" her words, why do they hurt him so much?

I did idiot! "Sorry, I tried." As he spoke she looked back up at him "I really did but you know how work is..."

"I understand," she let go of him as walked to his bed and sat on the edge "But still, I would have wanted you to visit once, you mean a lot to me."

"Don't." Ichigo wrote on her belly as he stopped her from fully undressing. Her chest was out, her bare breast making it harder for Ichigo to say no.

"Why?" she was whimpering now, the man under her making her want something... "Do you not like my body?"

"This isn't the place" he wrote his eyes barely able to not stare at her chest. "You will regret it later..."

She began sobbing, her hands over her eyes "I love you." And she leaned in, laying her bare chest on top of his. She nuzzled her face into his neck, little pecks and kisses were received.

"I love you too." He wrote on her back, one hand intertwined in hers.

"Can you stay here, with me?" she asked, whispering in his ear.

"Of course, idiot." And she giggled in his ear.

"I'm moving," she said as she lay on hand on his shoulder "to France..."

"When? Why?" he found himself asking.

"I'm not sure, but Kaien said soon." She squeezed his shoulder slightly.

What about me? "What about all your friends, your brother, me?" she looked up when he said me.

"I don't know..."

Tell her how you feel! "Well, I guess this is goodbye?" Ichigo took her hand, shifting closer to her.

"For now," she smiled at him, "I will come back to see you all, especially you."

Tell her! "I got something to tell you," he blushes lightly and looked at her.

"What is it?" she almost whispered, her eyes set on him.

"I'm really th-" he stopped when her phone rang. She looked down at it and saw a picture of Kaien. She pressed the ignore button, smiling back up at him.

"I'll call him back, this is our time. What did you want to say?" her smile made him hurt inside, telling her will hurt her. Not telling her will only hurt him. He rather just let him suffer.

"I'll miss you." He couldn't...

She smiled brightly and got up.

"I'll miss you too." She leaned in and kissed him on the cheek. "Bye."

And she left, leaving him alone.

She left not knowing that the man in front of her was the man whom really cares.

And the man she was going to didn't care at all.

She was oblivious.
